Imagine the possibilities for 2016 with a county wide cc program now allowed under our ordinances! We haven’t even sent our 2015 annual report to the printer yet and I already can’t wait to see the 2016 report.

The problem

74-86 million pet cats 30-80 million community cats
> 95% NOT in colonies

What can our superpowers control?
• Whether people have or care for cats?• Whether there
are free roaming cats in the world?

Reality Check
• 11 by 7 miles; 2500-3000 cats • 96 cats trapped, infected with panleukopenia, released by
helicopter• 8 full time teams of 2 hunters hunting day and night• 5 full time teams of 2 trappers running 500 lethal traps• Poison injected into 30,000 day-old chicks• Cats eliminated after 14 years
“The eradication campaign on Marion Island hasbeen the largest and only successful one of its
kind.”

The bottom line

What can we really control?• Which cats come
through our shelters’ doors, and the outcomes for these cats
• The conditions in our shelters
• The messages that we share with the public
• Where we focus our limited resources

If it’s not helping, we can stop
